Doesn't help with your date picker problem, but to set the application-wide
format you can call this in your application's init method:
((ConverterLocator)getConverterLocator()).set(Date.class, new
PatternDateConverter(DATE_PATTERN, true))

I did this and it worked.
txtStartDate = new DateTextField("txtStartDate", new
Model<Date>(startDate.toDate()),"dd-MMM-yyyy");

You can try roll your own picker using YUI, here's some code I wrote that
does this:
http://fisheye3.atlassian.com/browse/j-trac/trunk/jtrac/src/main/java/info/jtrac/wicket/yui/YuiCalendar.java?r=HEAD
http://fisheye3.atlassian.com/browse/j-trac/trunk/jtrac/src/main/webapp/resources/yui/calendar/calendar-utils.js?r=HEAD
I had to use some extra JS (see link above) to set the format on the YUI
side, hope this helps. Disclaimer: code is a little old though, old version
of YUI, referencing JS from context relative path not really recommended -
prefer relative to java package etc.

Re: Application-wide date formate

Hi guys;
I am getting frustrated trying to display date in the format "dd-MMM-yyyy"
e.g 05-FEB-2010.
i am using a TextField<Date> and a
org.apache.wicket.extensions.yui.calendar.DatePicker . I have added the date
picker to the textfield as required.
After i pick the date from the datepicker popup, i want to to insert the
date in the above format. I have tried writting a converter, overriding the
get/setModelObject on the textfield among other things but it wont work.
Anyone suggest a different date picker component that i can use?
regards.
Josh
